Quique Flores hails Odion Ighalo form

Watford manager Quique Flores heaps praise on Odion Ighalo after seeing the striker notch goals number 11 and 12 of the season against Liverpool.

Watford manager Quique Flores has hailed the form of Odion Ighalo after he helped his side to a 3-0 victory over Liverpool at Vicarage Road this afternoon.

The Nigerian striker netted for the fourth Premier League game in a row to double his side's lead in the 15th minute, before adding number 12 of the campaign in the closing stages.

Flores believes that Ighalo "deserves" to be in such a fine run of form, but was also keen to stress the importance of the rest of the team.

"Ighalo is the biggest scorer this season. He is always close to the box, always shooting and creating attempts, he deserves it. But of course it depends on the players, we create like a collective," Flores told BBC Sport.

Watford's victory makes it four on the bounce in the top flight for the first time since 1987 and takes them to within one point of the top four.
